Former NFL star defensive end JJ Watt floated a fascinating conspiracy theory on aliens during Wednesday’s appearance on “The Pat McAfee Show.”
JJ Watt briefly dove into the world of extraterrestrial conspiracy theories with Hawk and McAfee on the popular ESPN program. And why not, given the bizarre mystery of the drone invasions in the northeast United States?
During an “AskJage” segment of McAfee’s show, a fan asked if aliens have ever visited the earth. Hawk opined that aliens are indeed “among us”, while the three-time Defensive Player of the Year offered a more intriguing theory:
“I feel like they have to have been here at some point, yes. Whether it was way before us or something, but somebody’s been here at some point.”
Have aliens visited earth..
